Ganzhou Uyghur Kingdom

Overview

Aduoyu became ruler of the Ganzhou Uyghurs in 926 and sent an embassy with horses to the Later Tang. The record is thin: the Chinese histories give little more than the embassies sent and the title received.

Rise to Power

He succeeded Diyin in 926; his relationship to the earlier rulers is not recorded.

Rule and Achievements

  • Sent tribute horses to the Later Tang court

Legacy

Some modern lists credit him with the title Shunhua Qaghan and a reign to 933; others give that title to Renyu from 928. Both versions appear in the reference works.
